BACKGROUND
On Thursday the 6th of September, 2007 a large diesel spill occurred on the River Boyne in Drogheda, Ireland. The spill was reported to the environmental department of Drogheda Borough Council and an emergency action plan was enacted.
WHY CHOOSE S-200 Oilgone® and PRP?
Due to the environmentally sensitive nature of the Boyne – it is a fresh water / salt water interface and it has unique habitat and bird sanctuaries – there was a requirement for a product that would break-up and clean the spill without endangering the habitat of local wildlife. S-200 OilGone® was the product chosen to treat the diesel on the water, and PRP to treat the natural habitats of the birds
